Faculty of Information Technology

The Department of Computing Fundamentals delivers courses providing fundamental knowledge for students of the Faculty of IT. We focus on building critical thinking and programming skills for students through courses, such as Introduction to Programming and Programming Techniques. The tests in these courses are performed on computers and judged automatically by ourself-developed software.

All of our lecturers have postgraduate qualifications, and half of them are pursuing PhD degrees in Vietnam or foreign countries. We work together to introduce innovative learning and teaching methods which help students improve their self-learning ability, self-motivation as well as encourage their independent thinking and support them to develop teamwork skills.

In addition, the department is also in charge of training the university’s IT Olympic team, which has achieved many awards at the annual Vietnamese Informatics Olympiad.
